Pros

High wages and benefits package. With the amount of turn over, lots of room to advance your career. Many locations in the US and other countries if one is interested in moving to find opportunities.

Cons

Hostile take over by investment group 3 years ago corrupted core DNA of Alcoa legacy. Extreme instability in top leadership. Lost in a landscape mired in shareholder focus. Determined to meet unrealistic financial targets at the expense of equipment, employees, and customers. Unable to unplug for even a day. Work during "vacations". Work on weekends. 65+ hour work weeks, in perpetuity.

Pros

Somewhat free to work autonomously and work the best way you can without too much intervention from senior leadership.

Cons

Enough is almost never enough so very little job satisfaction.
